    It would be a baby bonus. If we had free healthcare and subsidized daycare then it would be a bonus. But we don’t have those things, so it’s an insult

      The rest of the world thinks that the USA is weird, yes. But if I was an American, I would take any little help that I can.

        It’s offensive and condescending given the extreme lack of overall support for parents, I’m glad non-Americans cannot relate. They should change the amount to 1 penny, it would be more appropriate, have nearly the same effect, offend us the same, and save (billionaire) taxpayers more money, which is the real goal.

        You said you would take any little help you can, here’s a pwetty penny. Go buy yourself a gumball.
